The AlphaE B1-18 is an advanced high power Bassmodule that can be stacked or flown together in arrayswith Alpha M3, M8 and S2 and AlphaE- M cabinets. TheAlphaE B1-18 uses one NEXO specified high power 18”LF driver on an innovative internal flare componentmanufactured of rigid honeycomb composites. This highefficiency design delivers extremely low distortion,coherent bass output from 40Hz to 230Hz. The AlphaEB1-18 is fully capable of operating without the S2SubBass in applications where extreme LF performance isnot required.

The AlphaE Series is an extension of NEXO’s acclaimed Alpha System; modular, compact, high powerloudspeakers tailored for a wide range of touring andinstalled sound reinforcement applications, from clubs andtheaters to large scale live events.

Like all NEXO products, AlphaE Series components aredesigned to work with advanced electronic processors,guaranteeing consistent performance and reliability of thehighest standard.

ALPHA E- B1-18 Advantages

• High power Bass module (140dB peak SPL @1m) using a composite curve flared horn loaded1 x 18” 6Ω LF driver.
